AND WE’RE NOT LOOKING FOR YOUR AVERAGE DRIVER. When a commercial truck breaks down... When a tractor-trailer needs to be moved... When a heavy vehicle needs roadside assistance... When the job requires something bigger than an ordinary tow truck... That’s where you come in. We’re looking for an experienced Heavy-Duty Tow Driver who can safely operate Heavy-Duty Wreckers, Rollbacks, and Recovery Vehicles over 26,000 lbs.

YOU NEED TO HAVE THEIRS. Heavy-duty towing is a team operation. The driver is on the road. Dispatch is coordinating the move. Management is supporting the operation. And communication keeps everything moving. We’re looking for someone who understands that keeping Dispatch informed is part of doing the job right. βœ“ Answer the call βœ“ Confirm the assignment βœ“ Communicate delays βœ“ Report problems βœ“ Keep documentation accurate βœ“ Close out the job correctly GOOD COMMUNICATION = BETTER OPERATIONS.

πŸ›‘ NO SHORTCUTS WITH HEAVY EQUIPMENT. A truck over 26,000 lbs. doesn’t care if you’re in a hurry. Neither does physics. That’s why we expect our drivers to do things the right way. Inspect the truck. Check the equipment. Plan the route. Follow the regulations. Report the problem. Protect the customer’s equipment. Get everybody home safely.

We want drivers who understand that professionalism and safety go together. 🎯 WHAT YOU NEED TO BRING THE MUST-HAVES: βœ“ Valid CDL-A βœ“ Doubles/Triples Endorsement βœ“ No Automatic Transmission Restriction βœ“ Current DOT Medical Card βœ“ Clean driving record βœ“ At least 2 years of commercial driving experience βœ“ Ability to safely operate heavy-duty commercial vehicles βœ“ Strong communication and interpersonal skills βœ“ Ability to work independently and as part of a team βœ“ Strong attention to detail and organization βœ“ Ability to work effectively with Dispatch βœ“ Weekend availability βœ“ Flexibility to work holidays when operationally required βœ“ Required on-call availability βœ“ High school diploma or equivalent βœ“ Basic mechanical knowledge and ability to use tools ⭐ EVEN BETTER IF YOU HAVE: ☣️ HazMat Endorsement πŸ›’οΈ Tanker Endorsement πŸͺ Heavy-Duty Towing Experience βš™οΈ Recovery Experience πŸ”§ Strong Mechanical Skills πŸš› Commercial Transport Experience πŸ“‘ Dispatch-Driven Fleet Experience The more experience you bring to the operation, the more opportunity there is to put it to work.

🧠 THE BEST HEAVY-DUTY DRIVERS KNOW: THE TRUCK IS ONLY PART OF THE JOB. The customer is stressed. Traffic is moving around you. Dispatch needs information. The weather may not cooperate. The equipment may have a problem. The schedule may change. And you still have to get the job done professionally. We’re looking for someone who can think, communicate, adapt, and execute β€” not just hold a steering wheel.
